Senior Adult Ministry //
Senior adults are a vital part of the life of our church! Seniors who get involved at First Baptist Decatur contribute meaningfully to our community through spiritual renewal, acts of service, and fellowship. They are encouraged and assisted in their efforts through our Legacy ministry and peer support.
Through First Baptist’s community groups, adults 50 and older are offered opportunities including travel, one-day outings, fellowship events, education, and service projects.
We would love to help you get connected with the senior adult ministry at First Baptist Church Decatur!! If you would like more information, please connect with us using the contact form below.
Young at Heart
Young at Heart (YAH) provides opportunities throughout the year for senior adults to experience friendship, adventure, service, and the love of Christ. The focus of YAH is for adults 55 and older. You don't have to "join" Young at Heart. Just begin by getting involved in the service and activity opportunities Young at Heart makes available to senior adults here at First Baptist!

Join Legacy Ministry for a train ride through the mountains with Blue Ridge Scenic Railway! On April 24, we'll arrive at FBCD at 6:30 am (for a 7:00 am departure).
About the trip: Starting at the historic depot in Blue Ridge, GA, riders take a 4-hour, 26-mile round-trip journey along the Toccoa River and through the countryside. The first leg of the adventure takes riders on a one-hour trip to the quaint sister towns of McCaysville, GA and Copperhill, TN, nestled deep in the mountains on each state’s line. Passengers enjoy the towns during a two-hour layover before taking the one-hour return trip through the scenic forest and back to the depot. (Lunch will be on your own in McCaysville.)
Cost: $50/person (does not include the cost of lunch)
RSVP: Only 30 spots available! Sign up by Wednesday, April 16 at 6:00 pm. Call the Welcome Center (404.373.1653), stop by during our regular office hours, or sign up through your Sunday Small Group.
